HP Tarot card progress - Justice
Barging on ahead. Hopefully this looks sufficiently 1) like Neville, 2) like a Justice card and not King of Swords or something.
- The concept thumbnail was set in the Room of Requirement, but this setting just suited the atmosphere and character better I felt.
- I know some people don't like blood/violence in their tarot decks, so I hope the snake isn't too gory or distracting. I just felt like it was important to include it because I was thinking about how one important scene for Neville was how he was able to overcome his fear of Snape -> Snape was killed by Nagini (next card), yet Neville defeated the snake -> karma/destiny/strength of will somethingsomethingsomething. Feels like it helps the composition too.
- Robe or no robe? I feel like no robe might be more striking, but robe might help the "Yer a wizard,HarryNeville" feeling.
- Oh yeah, I'll add more beaten-up to his face of course but I didn't want to mess it up too much right now before you guys get a good look at him and tell me "That's not even Neville ya scrub"

Also: don't have good memory of movie Neville, so can't really help you on that front. Can tell you that he's def. not Harry, but also that he looks about 20.

"Not Harry"+"about 20" is pretty good, considering how nonspecific my mental image of Neville is (without copying the movies), and that he's 17-18 (and battleworn) here :>
